Unplugged Tots - Airport Activity
This is a great activity if you’re heading off on a plane.
This printable will help while away the time in the airport with the children. Think of it as a scavenger hunt, or bingo, or a way to introduce tally charts to the children.
(When children get to school, they’ll start to look at organising data so counting items is a really good introduction to this.) I needed this so thought it would be useful for other parents too!

“There is currently a shortfall of over 173,000 workers in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) sectors: an average of 10 unfilled roles per business in the UK…..This is a challenge that we have tracked for the last 15 years – longer than the time it takes for a primary aged-child to complete their education.” IET - Engineering Kids Futures
